On the right, a framed photograph on a red draped backdrop shows a figure seated in saffron-orange robes with rudraksha mala, hand raised in blessing, with a red-and-gold ornate border; a large decorated umbrella with green, red and yellow panels stands above it. A brass oil lamp and small offerings sit on a side counter. Tables covered with fruit-patterned cloths hold steel vessels, fruit baskets with bananas and pineapple, coconuts and banana leaves. A woman in a pink sari with white gloves stands at the tables, and a man in a white shirt and dark trousers stands beside her. Two people in white clothing are partly visible at the left edge.
